In light of what Dewskie said in the S&W thread, and thanks to some recent revisitations to AVGN who has saved my sanity the past few weeks, AND in tribute to OKC's new av, I've decided to periodically dedicate a thread to the glory of the Angry Video Game Nerd, James Rolfe.

It'll be the AVGN videos, but there will also be some other threads like his Top 10's, Board James, the Overanalyzers, and the Monster Madness reviews, too.

I'll start with one of the most comprehensive bundles of videos, his REEviews of various consoles & accessories. The site now only allows 3 URL's per post so forgive the multiple postings...

All the talk about AVGN led me to spend way too long last night watching some old videos.

It's addictive.

Thank you so much for shining a light on this series. It's great.

My favorite has to be Plumbers Don't Wear Ties. Just the utter disdain and confusion in his voice cracks me up every time.

I don't see the appeal in this guy's videos.


You get to remember old games you long forgot about and his irrational anger is something that a lot of people find funny.

Maybe if you grew up during the nintendo stage instead of Sega/Super NES :wink:

I had Nintendo, scrub. I dominated SMB as a three year old.

And the irrational anger is the portion I dislike.


I'd like to think you were yelling at Bowser to die in a fire at 3 yrs old. :lol: :lol:

Now that I think about it, I guess Bowser did die in a fire at the end of each world... I mean lava is pretty close to fire.

I've got a bit of SomeGuy in me today. ;)

But seriously...fans of AVGN are probably fans of Family Guy.

Stupid, pointless comedy isn't for me.

I think there's a place for both slapstick and cerebral humor.

I used to enjoy Family Guy. Not very good in recent years. Bob's Burgers is my current favorite animated sitcom. Harvey Birdman is my favorite of all time.

I dont think it gets much better than roughly seasons 3-9 of the Simpsons.

and yet you're a fan of "archer".

Kid, no problem. i should be able to get some more threads going this weekend. i can't wait to hear IMU continue to chime in with his disapproval of the AVGN for each one.

The Bowsers in Worlds 1-7 were fake. That's why when you killed him w/ fireballs, he turned into regular enemies (Goombas, Koopa Troopas, etc.). The Japanese instruction manual (canon) explained the fake Bowsers, but it was left out of the American (devil) version.

i think "archer" is hilarious. but it's also pointless and stupid humor. some of it works, some of it doesn't.
